Before After

Whatcha Gonna Do

Well I worked out again yesterday. I did 25 minutes on the treadmill. I'm trying to have a goal of 20-25 minutes of working out. Since I have gone from no kind of activity, I don't want to get bogged down by trying to do a lengthy workout. I want to ease into it. I want to make 20 minutes a habit, then move on, take this exercising thing on gradually. Maybe I won't despise it as much and will start to enjoy it. I mean when you run marathons you don't go from zero to a 2K overnight do you? Well, I'm using this logic with my workouts too.

I also want to try to get up just 20-30 minutes earlier in the morning so I can accomplish my workouts first thing in the morning. That way I don't feel so overwhelmed by the time I get home from work to accomplish this because it would have already been done. If I have time and feel like it I could do more in the evening, but the important thing is to just get some sort of movement started. This will be hard. I'm not a morning person, but I must do something. I'll be starting school tomorrow and will be even more pressed for time, so the morning is really my only option.

I picked up my bridesmaid dress from getting altered Saturday. It was depressing when trying to zip the dress. I haven't gained weight since the fitting, but the idiots at the shop didn't order a size bigger like they are supposed to. And the way the dress is made and fit and the way my body shape is, it's a snug fit in the back section. I was blessed with a booty, what can I say! So I'm trying to do crunches and hopefully I can lose about 5-10 pounds in a couple of weeks. I might want to start watching what I eat though. That's the hardest part I think. I have to trick my mind into not feeling like I'm depriving myself. This is the key...

Well, that's all for now. I hope everyone had a fantabulous weekend! Now back to the daily grind!!!

Hello Beautiful

HI!!  Weightloss is HORRENDOUS!!!  I hate it b/c it's work and im lazy and now that came back on this website i feel overwhelmed b/c it's all different and i don't know where to go.  SIGH

LUMI

To a new week!

I hope you have an awesome and healthy new week! Im right there with you on being a morning person, heck I don't think I will ever wake up and go and workout! No way, im an afternoon person haha!

Happy Monday!

AHHHH....

I'm in the same boat!  I tell myself that I could just get up early and go work out, but when that time comes....I can't get out of bed!  Maybe we could pick two days a week and motivate each other to get up early and do a 20 minute workout.  Want to?  I'll even get up YOUR time early....not mine!  Whatcha say?

About the bridesmaid dress...you'll look fabulous no matter what!  Sexy beast!!!!  :o)  lol.....
